Colbert: the most expensive lousy ship ever

I reseted 5 lines in order to get Colbert and since I am not a whale and not sitting on millions of fxp thought I'd grind them as it "could be fun". I just finished Henri, halfway to Des Memes, stuck on Farragut, not even started on Harugumo, Audacious ... Not only my blood pressure rose from playing lower tiers, but my teeth started grinding.. On top of that, I got Smolensk and had the opportunity of meeting Colbert 1 on 1. Do you have any idea how fast he melted? On EU, at last, in just a handful of battles, didn't see Colbert do any significant things to win a game, unlike Smolensk. Now I am thinking resetting lines wasn't that good of an idea, however, I might get Ohio instead of baguette or fxp (12.5k rp = 250.000 fxp) so I can get Alaska. To summarise it - not impressed thus far with Colbert I've seen played by regular folks.
